SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. We have copied from our respected Contemporary , the Courier, on article on the important question of Banking Affairs, and the present condition of the Money Market. The difficulties and dangers de scribed by our Contemporary are truly of such impor tance, that they must fill every thinking man with apprehension. What is the remedy for this appalling danger, suggested by our Contemporary ? It says— " Nations are, in such matters, slow and reluctant learners ; and much suffering must, we apprehend, be en dured, before the issue of paper be co nfined to one body. A great deal might, however, be done indirectly to bring about this desirable consummation. Were Government to order that none but Bank of England notes should be re ceived in payment of taxes, it would wo do much to discou rage the issue of country paper ; andi t respects, a proper measure , i nasmuch as t is necessary to secure the public against loss." It would seem that our Contemporary thinks the evil is to be corrected by the Bank of England being the one body to which the issue of paper should be con fided. We should indeed be alarmed if we could believe it possible that such a result would follow the present financial crisis. To entrust a power of this description to a body of merchants responsible only to their cs : - proprietors, and whose first duty is to make good divi dends, is an idea which, we trust, will never be se riously entertained by Government or Parliament. Can any sane man be of opinion that the former history of the Bank of E ng l an d an d the conduct of its directors furnish a security for the safe exercise in future of an uncontrolled power over the whole paper . issues of country ? Nay, with all the experience of former mistakes and dangers to guide the manage ment of the Bank of England, what evidence is there now of their having contracted the issues of paper when their excess first became apparent by the exportation of gold? If this exportation began at the time when Portuguese and Spanish loans were negotiated, what e vidence have we that the Bank then instantly com menced the process of contraction ? Surely it ought to be the first to watch the foreign exchanges, and to hoist the signal of alarm. Was that the case ? When Parliament meets this subject must be thoroughly in vestigated. The returns which will then be required will show when the excess of paper issues became ap parent to the Directors of the Bank of England and to the Government, by the export of gold, and whether all those preventive and precautionary measures were taken by the Bank, in conjunction with the Government, which the public interests claimed, and which the public had a right to expect from men of prudence and knowledge. Parliament will also inquire into the value of the present system of publishing the statement of the liabilities and assets of the Bank. We were told during the discussions on the renewal of the Charter, that the present publicity was to secure us against a recurrence of the evils en dured in 1825. Has it done so ? Is it a publicity calculated to promote a habit of inquiry, and thereby to instruct and inform the public, and warn them of ap proaching danger ; or is it not rather a publicity calcu lated only to benefit a limited number of individuals, and to tell the mass of merchants and manufacturers in what manner they have been ruined or crippled, after the evil is done, and when it is impossible for them to avail themselves of the knowledge for any useful purpose ? We admit, with our worthy Con -4 temporary, the existence of a state of rottenness preg nant with extreme, danger in the present paper system of the country ; but we should view with increased alarm any plan for making the Bank of England the sole irresponsible issuers of paper. What reflecting man can venture to say that it would permanently give the required security against excess of issues ? And what friend of the liberal institutions of the country would not in such a course of proceed ing be deeply apprehensive of the great and manifold evils which uncontrolled influence would give to the directors of so mighty a machine, exercising its agency in every part of the kingdom ? In making these ob servations our only object is to guard the public against hasty conclusions in reference to this important sub ject. We do not deny the evils of the present system of paper issues by joint-stock banks, or mean to con tend that it is not capable of great improvement ; but we deprecate the idea of looking to the Bank of Eng land as the only substitute. We wish to see a rigid inquiry instituted by Parliament, accompanied by the production of ample documentary information. The public will then have better grounds than it now pos sesses for forming a sound judgment, both as to the causes of the present evils, and the manner in which their recurrence may for the future be best guarded against.—Morning Chronicle. One of the most amusing specimens of the " lie lu dicrous" which we have lately witnessed, is the nega tion, on the part of the Tories, that their proceedings ore at all influenced by a desire to possess themselves of office. The falsehood of this negation is so univer sally obvious that it deceives no one, and is, therefore, more calculated to excite derision than indignation. It is like the Nolo Episcopari of those diffident and vera cious divines who, in accepting their spiritual charge, solemnly repudiate the influence of mundane conside rations, but at the same time suffer themselves to be persuaded to accept the emoluments of the diocese purely from a love of the Church. This species of de ception is so old and well understood, that we are sur prised such skilful tricksters as the Tories should ex pose themselves to the contempt and laughter of at tempting its repetition. l-low strikingly has our great dramatist, who unveiled the mysteries of the human heart in its best as in its worst varieties, pourtrayed this kind of duplicity when he represented the san guinary and a mbitious Richard refusing to accept the crown, for possession of which he had perpe trated the blackest crimes, and professing to take it only in compliance with the public solicitations. The " Great Captain" has also given a memorable illustra tion of this affected aversion to power, when previously to his first Administration lie declared in the House of Lords that it would be madness in him to aspire to the Premiership, for which he had no desire nor ambition ; nor did he, as he declared, possess the abi lity to discharge the high and important duties . of the office, even if his inclinations prompted him to its ac ceptance. Yet, before the lapse of a few days after this declaration, we found the modest and unambitious Duke flinging off his assumed indifference of office, and acting with all his natural daring as chief of the British Ministry I Of a similar character are all the present decla ra ti ons o f th e Tories, that office is no t e mptation to them, when it in fact constitutes the first end and aim of all their exertions. Who can keep his gravity, on reading the assertion of the Standard, that—" No man can say of the Conser vatives— Theirs is a vulgar party race, St r uggling, by dark intrigue, for place." " These lines appear to have been written- expressly for the Tories, though their veraciou s a d vocate so f orc ibly disclaims their application. For wh a t b ut t h e posses sion of office do the Tories so unceasingly struggle ? For what but the possession of office did a Tory Ca binet pass Catholic emanc i p ation ? Why did almost all the Tories profess themselves Reformers w h en Si r Robert Peel and the Duke of Wellington last usurp e d the Administration ? Was it on account of an aver sion to office, that—after denouncing the Reform Act as containing the elements of national ruin—they offered themselves as Ministers to carry its principles into effect. The only point on which all Tories it t ar i e s agreed is to get into power by any contrivance — on this principle only that they are urited. Their cant about the Monarchy, the Church, and the House of Lords, is sheer pretence to enlist antiquated preju dice. These institutions are valued by the Tories only as a means of maintaining their own ascendancy ; and of the truth of this there needs no stronger proof than the fact of their perilling the safety of the Monarchy, Church, and House of Lords, rather than yield to the people the rights from which they have so long and so unjustly excluded them. In support of these institutions, they boast of being united; but, as we have already stated, the desire of place is their only bond of union. The are even more divided in opinion than the Reformers, but they have more discretion to conceal their individual differences. Some, such as Newcastle, Winchilsea, &c., will hear of no compromise nor surrender, but propose to die in their last ditch. Others, like the Duke of Wel lington, perceiving, the futility and folly of attempting to resist the national will, would concede to Re form just so much as would appease popular feeling, THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 3, 1836. and no more. Others again would repeal the Reforms already made, call out the army, and cut down, a la Peterloo, all who might venture to express this dissa tisfaction. Thus the possession of office is the one thing sought for by the Tories, however they differ as to the means of obtaining it—and while exulting in the disunion of Reformers, save on this :subject, there is as little unanimity amongst themselves. Ex traordinary sympathy is manifested by them for that section of the Liberals which threatens to secede from the Ministry and the main body of Reformers, unless they pursue the exact line of march which it injudi ciously points out. The leaders of that section have but little cause of exultation in the patronage which their threatened defection has enlisted for them. The adulation of the Tories should in itself be sufficient to convince them of the impolicy of their conduct. We believe that there are many individuals in that section influenced by an indiscreet enthusiasm, and a natural impatience of the aggravating check which has been given to the progress of Reform ; but we believe also, and we are pained to believe, that there are some urged on by personal animosities, disappointed ambi tion, or underhand dealings with the Tories—and while we regret the indiscretion of the former, we must execrate the baseness and turpitude of the latter —those traitors who care not what misfortunes they entail upon the country, provided they gratify their paltry malevolence, or their equally paltry ambition. — MO 7 ning Advertiser. The political curtain being about to draw up, pro grammata of the entertainments for the ensuing season already begin to circulate. In Downing-street, as sometimes occurs in other theatres where the nominal managers happen to be noodles, an undue share of power necessarily devolves on any one or more impu dent, forward, bustling, and intriguing personages o n amo g the actors—those who are in general the greatest scamps of the company—who vociferate and bully, and keep the whole green-room in such an uproar, that at length the choice of performances and the cast of parts are, for peace-sake, left to their sole dictation. The present " managers" of Downing-street are creatures like those we have described. They are patentees, moreover, of the Theatre-royal, though merely from month to month. But so little conversant are they with the political drama of the kingdom, and so incapable of either leading or consulting the national taste, that every piece they have yet brought out for the last two years has been damned at the first represen tation. They have now, in pure despair, negotiated with some of their own refractory performers to take the management bodily out of their hands, they them selves still retaining their official salary and profits ; while the other party, knowing what they are about, agree to terms thus seemingly unreasonable, in the con sciousness that if they once get hold of the direction, they will soon find means to send the presentfaineans out of it. This is at last freely (perhaps somewhat unskil fully) announced to be the relation henceforth subsis ting between the nominal Ministers of the King, and the real, though not yet official, rules of his Govern ment. A revolutionary newspaper of Thursday last proclaimed, while a Ministerial hack of the same evening and of yesterday repeated, what in effect amounts to this—ihat the Whig placemen (we will not libel them by the name of Ministers), finding they can no longer play fast and loose with the ultra- Radicals, but that the latter arc sick of being hourly cheated out of their hopes of revolution, and for no thing, have consented to let the Radicals—English and Irish—take their own course, in bringing for ward political measures, without the risk of being —in any manner—opposed by the Whigs, as a Go vernment. On the contrary, the blockhead who as sumes to be, and we dare is, an evening organ of the official Whigs, talks loftily about the natural weakness of a mere popular faction, without the aid of an Aristocracy, and actually affects to encourage the fierce Radicals by promising that in their wildest and most outlandish freaks they may now hope to have Whig Ministers for their " leaders !"—revolutionary Radicals led by baffled, mortified, cringing, trembling Whigs of the Melbourne rump 1 I This out-hoaxes history. Why, do these miserable coxcombs conceive that the Radicals will accept them for " leaders" with any view but first to laugh at them, and then shove them by the shoulders into the nearest ditch ? Do the Whigs so much as dream that the Radicals here, or the Papists across the Channell, will tolerate even their co-operation, otherwise than as vassals, while they can perform the menial offices of revolution ? or that they will spare them, more than they would so many troublesome vermin afterwards? Theßadicals have certain public objects to carry—pernicious ones, as we think—frightful ones, as a little time will show to these self-deceivers, that the British nation con sider them. But still they are not merely definite purposes—they arc of a political, and, to Republi cans, of a legitimate nature. But what is the pur pose of the Melbourne Whigs ? Is it constitu tional ?—is it political ? Unquestionably not. 1 simply personal ; and it is so far definite, in that has never undergone the slightest change or modifica tion. In 1834 it was—office. They refused an ap propriation clause to the Irish Papists, because they fancied it would lose them more liberal and constitu tional votes in England than it would gain for them ' among the ultra-Radicals in both countries, because there had yet been no coalition between the English demo crats_ and the O'Connell Tail, and because the Whigs, as a party in the House, were strong enough to bid de fiance to the partisans of revolution. In 1835 the end was—office. By the election consequent on the forma ton of Sir Robert Peel's Ministry, the Whigs lost more than half their preceding strength. The Radi cals and Papists throve upon their plunder. The Whigs could then exist as Ministers without the pro tection which they had before despised. Th ey bought O'Connell and the English Radicals by a specific sacrifice of the Protestant Church of Ireland, and by a general, though vague, assurance of "liberal" measures in Great Britain. The appropriation clause, withheld not nine months before, was coined by these traitors into the price of a set of mercenaries only less flagitious than themselves. But there were wolves in England to be appeased, and adequate con cessions were not made to them in fulfilment of what they had taken for pledges. The ballot, universal suffrage, the extinction of the House of Lords, had not been expressly stipulated, although they were reckoned on under the Whig profession of " carrying out" the Reform Bill, which indeed in the Radical estimation seems to have meant nothing less than throwing the monarchy out of the windows. Radi calism sulked full as much because the cravings of its partisans had not been sopped, as because the march of its principles had not been accelerated. The schism became more serious every day. There was an arrival from North America—an ill-omened arrival. The object of the Whig Rump still being office, a fresh bargain was made with the Radicals—the Whigs re tain their salaries. There will be some better pickings for individuals of the Destructive' crew. The Mo narchy is once more to be the price of support from them, and is to furnish, as before, the wages of Whig prostitution. What in the beginning of 1835 was vague, is now, at the close of 1836, to be specific. The Ministers, as Ministers, will protect neither Church nor Crown. Each Cabinet placeman will vote as his own judgment, or want of it, may incline him. It will serve to a given point the purpose of the Radi als that point once passed, they will kick their ab ject inst rument d own sta i rs . But the people of Eng ' and will be beforehand with them both, and will take that operation into their own keeping.—Times. Lord Segrave is not profound of judgment , nor r eady of wit. We would not give more for his spe culationsthe future than for his opinions upon Lordship upon the past. Yet even Lord Segrave can be no longer i o s f a th e times. " There is a possi- P h e e rh h a a p s s e speedy return of the Tories to power." to the Tewkesbury Re formers—"bb i n t blind the signs g ehr n ie s s possibility —there is even a pro bability--f tl? and detected the errors in Mr. Spring We are not mformed what has forewarned Lord Se entered the he has visited the Exchequer, Lord grave of the coining events. Perhaps Rice's last sum ; or Fo reign -office, and perused the perplexities o f Pal merston's last protocol ; or he may have been assured, in a note from Lord Morpeth, that Mr. O'Connell is really too unreasonable ; or he may have been instructed, in a whisper from Lord John Russell, that Mr. Gr o t e is positively too intractable. Certainit is that Lord t IS Segrave has seen a screw loose • and in what part it may be of the crazy vehicle whose speedy overthrow he foretels is of little consequence to us, or to the passen gers. Lord Segrave has been well taught, whoever may have been his teacher. But he might have gone farther. Whatever may be the prospect of the return of the Tories to power there is a possibility, there is a probability, there is an absolute certainty, of the dismission of the Whigs from it. It never yet was seen or heard that an Administration should continue long to retain office, refusing to plaCe itself in the front of either of the hostile parties which struggle in the Parliamentary arena. We see two hostile parties mar shalled in this hour for the most momentous political contest that ever Europe beheld. The one party would abolish the House of Lords—would destroy the Church Establishment—would introduce the ballot : the other party would maintain the House of Lords—would perpetuate the Church Establishment—would repu diate the ballot. Upon each and all of these three im portant questions the present Cabinet holds a language which entitles it to the support of neither assailant nor defender. It neither advances with the Leveller nor resists with the Conservative. For a few weeks, or a few months, it may trim and truckle by turns : to-day conciliating the honest—to-morrow courting the base ; here professing to be m oderate—there affecting to be firm ; soothing Sir Robert Peel with an " if," and propitiating Mr. Hume with a " but." This cannot last. The line of difference between the antagonist opinions become daily more broad and plain ; and daily the position of the statesman becomes more diffi cult and more laughable who would govern the country without even a professed sympathy with either. — Morning Post.

HENRIETTA TEMPLE.—We have already stated that in this new novel, by the author of " Vivian Grey," the writer has brought his imagination to bear upon the history of the heart, but although the first volume and half is of great and sustained interest, developing strong passions, and a few but very forcible characters, the latter portion affords a remarkable contrast in the variety of its incidents, and the rapidity of its singular situations. The character of Lady Bellair will attract great attention, and there are some scenes in the third volume illustrative of the life of the most celebrated men of fashion in London, so vivid and life-like, and yet so different from anything that we have had, that there can be no doubt they are drawn from intimate and fine observation. Count Alcibiades de Mirabel and his compa nions cannot fail to be instantly recognised. PRICES OF CANALS, DOCK STOCKS,' MARKE ASSURANCE COMPANIES, &c.&c. &c. LONDON, FRIDAY, DEC. 2.
